Hola! Yup, terrible at updating this space, so thought I would just have myself post a single photo to hopefully get into the habit of doing this again. 🙂 Anyway, we went to the Gulf Shores with our friends last week. This was Day 1, which happened to be a Monday – wasn’t a bad […]

My brother moved to San Francisco back in 2006. I was a little sad about it back then….but only for a little bit because I already knew at the time that San Francisco was one of my favorite cities and him moving out there would give me a reason to visit. And that has been […]

The correct thing to do if you’re from Chicago and heading north into Wisconsin is to stop at Mar’s Cheese Castle. I think most people have intentions of picking up cheese curds, but there is also craft beer, pastry items and dried meats. Oh, and you can stop there for lunch as there’s a concession-like […]

Alright, I took too long to get back to editing the clips from our San Francisco trip back in October. But finally got another one done! The deets -> There was one day we decided to drive up to Berkeley to visit my sister-in-law’s sister (there was a better way to say that, I think) […]

Have you heard that editing videos is hard? It is! I’m embarrassed to tell you how long it took to edit this piece, but I learned a few things so the time wasn’t wasted. In any case, I don’t think I did the Ferry Building any justice here, but I do want to say that […]

Okay, that wasn’t the only reason we were in the Bay Area (my brother & his wife live there), but hey, it was an option so it became a priority. 🙂 The low down on crackbread: Crackbread is more properly known as Sweet Senorita Bread. It’s addicting (hence, the name). If I had to describe it, […]

The family and I went to San Francisco this past week to visit the other part of our family (my brother & his wife). I didn’t take as many pictures as I normally do on this trip and opted to hit the record button more. I’m not sure how that went as I haven’t previewed […]

I have two besties from college – I’ll call them J and M because they’re not internet people. Once upon a time, we used to be very good about taking annual trips somewhere. Then, life got a little busy for them as they have 5 kids between the two of them…and life was just starting […]

I actually thought I had more pictures of Russ & Daughters. But I’m a moron and only have two. TWO. But in all fairness, we were only here for about 10 minutes to pick up some dried fruit. The Husband was excited to leave with a bag filled with dried mango, apricot and papaya. The […]

Oh man, I don’t know what took so long, but after a million years, we finally found ourselves at Katz’s Deli on a Tuesday afternoon. It was a little after 1 o’clock. I didn’t think the crowd was too bad. What do you think? Ever since The Kid started traveling with us, the four of […]
